About Chelsey

Chelsey Fleishman is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family challenges, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep difficulties, parenting concerns, career transitions, and coping with life changes.

Background and approach

She combines practical skill-building with an emphasis on each person’s existing strengths to help clients find clearer ways forward. With seven years of practice, Chelsey draws on a background in family studies and interpersonal trauma to shape collaborative, goal-oriented work.

Her approach is person-centered and adaptable, matching techniques to what each client needs at different points in therapy. She attends to how family dynamics, culture, and past experiences influence coping patterns, and she helps clients develop compassionate, sustainable strategies for change.

Chelsey holds an LCSW and a CSW and practices from Idaho, offering a supportive space for those looking to improve communication, process grief, address trauma, or build skills for daily living and relationships.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

CBT focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, then building practical coping skills to reduce symptoms like anxiety and panic and to improve daily functioning. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, achievable steps and clarifies what a client wants to see change, which can help when addressing relationship patterns, parenting challenges, or life transitions.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative; the therapist will work with each person to determine which combination of methods best matches their goals, preferences, and current challenges. That process may include trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan as progress unfolds so the work stays relevant and manageable.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for scheduling and access from home or elsewhere in Idaho. These formats make it easier to maintain regular contact, practice skills between meetings, and fit therapy into a busy life while working with licensed professionals who adapt tools and exercises to remote delivery.
